Given:

\(∠ ARS = 125^\circ\)

Concept:

Angle made in a semi-circle is a right angle.

Angles formed in the same segment of a circle will be equal in measure.

Calculation:

BR is formed by joining B and R.

F1 Arun K 19-11-21 Savita D7

∠ARS + ∠ARP = 180°  [Linear Pair]

⇒ ∠ARP = 180° - 125° = 55° 

∠ARB = 90°    [Angle made in semi-circle] 

⇒ ∠ARP + ∠BRP =  90° 

⇒ ∠BRP = 90° - 55° = 35° 

∠BRP = ∠PAB = 35°  [Angles made in the same segement]

∴ ∠PAB = 35°
